Chapter 94 - 93: Who Beat Bai Luo?

The night was silent, but the lights in the room of Northland Bank were bright. "Tea, accommodation, entertainment... can this cost so much?" Looking at the bill, Tartaglia fell into self-doubt. Re-read the source of the bill. Mondstadt, Stone Gate, Wangshu Inn... Hiss, it seems that it really matches, especially the one at the stone gate, which actually shouted out the momentum of a million troops. Did you pay for the Millelith Army? It's not that Tartaglia can't come up with so much money, but the question is why does Bai Luo want to use his name to eat and drink lavishly? Obviously, he is also an Harbinger, so he should have the authority to use these funds. Rubbing his temple, he suddenly felt that he had one more reason to fight, which made him look forward to tomorrow even more. Because according to the information from the 9th Company, they will arrive tomorrow afternoon at the latest, and by then Bai Luo will not be able to escape even if he wants to. There was no need for him to explain the bills or anything like that, everything can be discussed with their fists. Besides... Liyue is his territory for the time being. He can't let Bai Luo run away on his territory, right? If he really ran away... Tartaglia's eyes casually scanned the room and finally locked onto the bow hanging on the wall. Tartaglia is proficient in all kinds of martial arts and can use any weapon with ease, but the bow and arrow is the weapon he is least good at. So he asked his men to find the bow and hide it, and practice with it in the house from time to time. "If Bai Luo escapes again this time, I will only use the bow and arrow until we decide the winner!" The glaciers are cold, the snowfields are freezing, and the lying tongues will be frozen! He Tartaglia does what he says! But poor Tartaglia didn't know that when Bai Luo didn't act like a human being, he really wasn't a human being. Therefore, he can never leave the bow and arrow in this life... The next day. God is always unkind to people when they are in a good mood. Since early morning, there has been sporadic drizzling rain. In the hazy rain and fog, Liyue Harbor is like a fairy palace hidden in the clouds, magnificent and incomparable. The pier was not affected by the rain and fog, and was still bustling with people coming and going. The various oil-paper umbrellas viewed from above looked like gorgeous flowers, beautiful beyond words under the rendering of the rain. Tartaglia and a group of Fatui stood at the entrance of Liyue early in the morning, waiting for someone. The pitch-black oil-paper umbrellas made them look like they were not someone to be trifled with, and the Millelith Army nearby was helpless and could only maintain order in the vicinity as best they could and drive back those residents who wanted to watch the excitement. I don't know how long it took, but a group of people appeared at the end of the road. They looked very serious in the rain, and the leading Cicin mage sobbed from time to time, looking like they were depressed. Tartaglia: "???" What's going on? Were they attacked? But there aren't many people around. The wind slime carrying Bai Luo slowly floated over, and Tartaglia finally understood what was going on. Bai Luo lay in the soft bedding, his face was extremely pale, his lips were bloodless, and he looked extremely weak. "What... is going on?" Tartaglia looked at Katarina next to him and asked in a low voice. "On the way, the instructor met an acquaintance, and it seems that he had a sparring match with that acquaintance. He came back like this." Katarina regretted it very much now. If they could have caught up, could they have saved the instructor? Tartaglia's expression is even more interesting. You've got other sparring partners out there! Hearing that Bai Luo was actually willing to actively compete with other people but had been avoiding him, the feeling of grievance almost overflowed from the screen. But thinking about how Bai Luo usually cherished his life, he also had some doubts. Was it because this guy didn't want to fight with him and pretended to be in this dying state on purpose? "How is your injury? Let me take a look." Tartaglia got on the slime carriage, causing the already tired wind slime to flap its wings even faster. With the help of Katarina, Tartaglia unbuttoned Bai Luo's windbreaker, and the wound on the latter's abdomen was exposed to Tartaglia's eyes. "Who... who did this?" Looking at the wounds on Bai Luo's body, Tartaglia felt a tingling sensation on his scalp. Judging from the size of the wounds, it should be a katana, and the opponent's ruthlessness was beyond his imagination, with almost every blow going deep into the root. The third knife was even more brutal. After it was inserted, the man actually rotated the blade, trying to crush Bai Luo's internal organs. Tartaglia finally understood why he was so weak. Under such circumstances...it was a miracle that he was still alive. Spar? What the hell? Are spars supposed to be this deadly? How come, he wasn't invited? Tartaglia suspected that if he just screamed a few times, he would be able to scare Bai Luo to death. "According to the instructor, that person's name is Zhongli." Katarina said honestly. In fact, she didn't know who Zhongli was, but according to Bai Luo, that person should be very strong. If Bai Luo didn't sacrifice himself, the entire Ninth Company might not be able to come back. "Zhongli?" Hearing this name, a thoughtful expression appeared on Tartaglia's face. He was not unfamiliar with this name, because in Liyue Harbor, this person was very famous. Except for the fact that he often talked nonsense when talking about the Geo Emperor, he always showed profound knowledge. It is said that he is a guest official of the Wangsheng Funeral Parlour and a very professional person. No matter what is related to funerals, he can talk about it in a very professional manner. He even knew the Rite of Parting, which not many people in Liyue knew about, and could even describe every detail. This is one of the reasons why he is highly respected in the Wangsheng Funeral Parlour. Tartaglia had also approached the other party secretly, but the other party showed a decrepitude that was not in line with his age. He looked like an old man who was about to die. Every day he either walked his birds or watched plays. He liked to listen to storytelling by a storyteller Liu Su at Heyu Tea House the most. Most of the time he was missing, and the Fatui had spies all over Liyue, but they still couldn't find any trace of him. If his information was correct, the Consultant of the Wangsheng Hall named Zhongli had indeed been running towards the Stone gate frequently in recent times, and it was very likely that he had fought with Bai Luo. It was really hard for him to imagine that such a person could beat Bai Luo into this state and kill him with such severe blows. It really shows that one cannot judge a person by his appearance. It seems that I need to get closer to each other in the future. "Send him to Bubu Pharmacy first." After covering Bai Luo with the blanket again, Tartaglia whispered. He knew very well that with the current means of the Fatui in Liyue, there was no way to completely cure Bai Luo, and it might even delay his treatment. Therefore, sending it to Bubu Pharmacy is the best choice. "My Lord, are you still going to the Chasm?" The person holding an umbrella for Tartaglia behind asked in a low voice. "No, I plan to go to the Wangsheng Funeral Parlour first." Looking at Liyue in the mist and rain, Tartaglia put down his mask. Regardless of whether Bai Luo's injury was caused by Zhongli or not, he needed to investigate it. Little did they know... this was a road of no return. ______________________________________ Hello my dear readers, I noticed that I am not getting power stones.
